Complete this short enquiry to help us understand your prosthetic needs, identify possible funding options and determine the most appropriate next step.

 

    1. Patient Information

    Who is this enquiry for? *

    2. How Did You Lose Your Leg?

    The cause of your amputation can sometimes affect how your prosthesis may be funded. Some patients may have access to third-party or compensation funding even if they do not have medical aid.

    Road Accident Funding

    Was a Road Accident Fund (RAF) claim opened following the accident? *

    Has RAF previously made a payment to you in relation to this claim? *

    Claim identification

    If RAF has previously made a payment to you and you do not have your RAF claim number available, you may provide your South African ID number to assist LAOS in identifying the claim.

    Your ID number will only be used by LAOS for purposes related to verifying or following up on the RAF funding pathway for this enquiry.

    Workplace Injury Funding

    Did the injury happen while you were performing your work duties? *

    Was the injury reported as an injury on duty? *

    Your ID number may be used by LAOS to assist in verifying whether an occupational injury claim was registered and to identify the applicable compensation pathway.

    3. Funding

    You May Have Another Funding Pathway

    Based on the information you provided, there may be a funding or compensation pathway worth investigating before you consider paying privately.

    This does not mean that funding has been approved. LAOS will need to review your circumstances and any available claim or funding information.

    4. Medical Scheme / Medical Aid Details

    Please provide the patient's medical scheme details. LAOS will use this information to assess the appropriate authorisation pathway.

    Is the patient the main member of the medical scheme? *

    Providing medical scheme details does not guarantee authorisation or payment. LAOS will review the information and advise you on the next steps.

    4. Private / Cash Patients

    5. Long-Term Monthly Payment Interest

    LAOS is exploring whether selected prosthetic solutions could become accessible through longer-term monthly payments in partnership with suitable finance providers.

    This option is currently being explored and is not currently an offer of finance.

    Your responses will help us understand what payment levels may be sustainable for patients interested in private prosthetic care.
